Despite the fact that the US State Department announced that neither NATO nor Washington was involved in the search for Gaddafi, and Great Britain claimed that it was only helping the rebels with intelligence, a pro-Gaddafi radio station reported that NATO planes had bombed Gaddafi's hometown of Sirte, which is one of its last strongholds.
And while rebel leaders are offering a million-dollar reward for Gaddafi "dead or alive," claiming his discovery would end the war, fighting in Tripoli continues.
Forces loyal to Gaddafi shelled the airport, and a Reuters correspondent counted 30 corpses in the center of the Libyan capital, mostly soldiers and armed men who fought for Gaddafi.
At least two of them had their hands tied and all of them were riddled with bullets, despite the fact that they all appeal to avoid revenge.
On the other hand, a British medical worker said she counted 17 bodies that she thought were prisoners executed by Gaddawi's forces, reports Reuters.
In an abandoned hospital in the suburbs of Abu Salim, in Tripoli, reports the American agency AP, a pile of decomposing bodies was found today.
21 bodies were found in one hospital room, and 20 in the hospital yard, all with darker skin than the Libyans.
At the same time, about 20 bodies were found in front of the Bab al-Azizi complex, some of whose hands were tied with plastic rope, while some were killed by a bullet in the back of the head, and it is not clear who committed these murders, reports AP.
Rebels move to Tripoli
Libyan rebels announced this morning that the National Transitional Council has begun implementing a plan for a gradual transition from Benghazi to Tripoli.
A senior official of the transitional government, Ali Tarhuni, said that council leader Mustafa Abdel Jalil will come to Tripoli as soon as the security situation allows.
"I announce the start of work in Tripoli of the executive committee," Tarhuni, the minister of oil and economy, said at a press conference, AFP reported.
"Long live democratic and constitutional Libya, glory to our martyrs," he added.
Tarhuni also called on forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi to lay down their arms and promised that they would be dealt with in accordance with the law.
"Lay down your weapons and go home. We will not be holy. The law stands between us and you. I promise you will be safe," he said.
The spokesman of the rebel Sajvet, Mahmud Shaman, said that half of the members of that body arrived in Tripoli yesterday to start the transition.
1.5 billion dollars unfrozen
The decision on the transfer, as stated by the French agency, was contributed by yesterday's decision of the United Nations, at the suggestion of the USA, to unfreeze 1,5 billion dollars of Libyan funds, which will be sent as humanitarian and other aid to Libya.
The funds were frozen in American banks and will be transferred to Libya within a few days.
The international Kontakt group called on the UN Security Council in Istanbul yesterday to adopt a resolution to freeze Libyan funds abroad.
Also, the Konkakt Group for Libya, which gathers representatives of NATO countries, the Arab League and other international organizations, agreed to release the funds as soon as possible, reports Reuters.
The head of Italian diplomacy, Franco Frattini, said that next week Rome will release 350 million euros frozen in Italian banks.
The financial aid decisions came three days after rebel forces entered Tripoli and seized much of the city.
